Saturday August 10 is our regularly scheduled quarterly VE test session at 2:00 pm. The test location will be the 118 Lemons Drive at the Tupelo Airport. This is same location where the Tupelo Amateur Radio Club usually meets. If you know of anyone who has been planning to take an exam, please pass a reminder to them. Those taking exams need to bring photo ID, any valid CSCE's, and $10 exam fee. Since May 20, 2021, all amateur examination applicants are required to provide an FCC Registration Number (FRN) to the Volunteer Examiners (VEs) before taking an amateur exam. Applicants who already have an FCC license, whether for amateur radio or in another service, already have an FRN and can use the same number. All prospective new FCC licensees, however, will be required to obtain an FRN before the examination and provide that number to the volunteer examiners on the Form 605 license application. I can provide instructions to anyone needing to obtain an FRN number.
Those wishing to take exams should notify me of their intention to sit for an exam at dannyrgrimes@gmail.com or 662-322-2201. Our standing policy is that, if by the Friday before the test, we appear to have no examinees planning to test, the test session is subject to cancellation.
VE's please email me if you can attend so that I will know that we have enough examiners to cover the session.
Thanks,
Danny
